    Detailed description
  • First the steel beam 1 and some embodiments and variants of the steel beam 1 will be described in greater detail.
  • The steel beam 1 comprises a base plate 2, two web parts 3 extending from the base plate 2, and an end plate 4 at opposite ends of the base plate 2 of the steel beam 1.
  • The web parts 3 can be arranged at the base plate 2 so that at least one elongated supporting surface (not marked with a reference numeral) for example for hollow core slabs is formed at the base plate 2.
  • The steel beam 1 can be formed by welding together a base plate 2, two web parts 3, and two end plates 4 of steel.
  • Is also possible that at least two of the base plate 2, the two web parts 3, and the two end plates 4 are produced from a common steel plate by bending.
  • The base plate 2, the two web parts 3 and the end plates 4 forms a space 5 that is at least partly limited by the base plate 2, the two web parts 3, and the two end plates 4. The space 5 can be configured to be filled with concrete (not shown in the figures). In the space 5 is configured to be filled with concrete can at least one reinforcement bar (not shown in the figures) be arranged in the space 5.
  • At least one of the ends of the steel beam 1 comprises a console supporting slot 6 extending from said at least one end of the steel beam 1. In the embodiments of the steel beam 1 illustrated in figures 1 to 4, both ends of the steel beam 1 is provided with a console supporting slot 6 extending from each end of the steel beam 1, but it is possible that only one of the ends of the steel beam 1 is provided with a console supporting slot 6, as shown in figures 5 and 6.
  • The console supporting slot 6 forms a first slot 7 in the end plate 4 so that the first slot 7 extend from the lower end edge 8 of the end plate 4 and a second slot 9 in the base plate 2 so that the second slot 9 extend from an end edge 10 of the base plate 2.
  • The console supporting slot 6 is at least partly laterally limited by side plates 11 inside the space 5 of the steel beam 1. The side plates 11 are attached for example by welding to the end plate 4 and to the base plate 2.
  • By utilizing the side plates 11 attached to the end plate 4 and to the base plate 2 inside the space 5, it is easy to secure the steel beam 1 to a console 16 extending into the console supporting slot 6 so that also horizontal forces can be transferred from the steel beam 1 to the console 16. The side plates 11 also makes it generally easy to secure the steel beam 1 to the console 16.
  • The steel beam 1 can comprise a top plate 12 that extends between the two web parts 3 and that extends between the two end plates 4. The top plate 12 can extend between the upper edges (not marked with a reference numeral) of the web parts 3, as illustrated in figures 1 to 4. It is also possible that the top plate 12 is arranged on top of the web parts 3, so that the top plate 12 extend in a transversal direction of the steel beam 1 beyond the upper edge of at least one of the two web parts 3. It is also possible that top plate 12 is fastened to at least one of two web parts 3 at a distance from the upper edge of said at least one of the two web parts 3 so that said at least one of the web parts 3 has a free section (not shown in the figures) that extend beyond the top plate 12.
  • At least one of the two web parts 3 can comprise apertures 13 for feeding concrete (not shown in the figures) into the space 5 to form a steel-concrete-composite beam.

Alternatively can the widened slot section 14 be provided at a distance from the second closed end 25 of the second slot 9. In this first embodiment of the steel beam 1, the side plates 11 extend between the end plate 4 and the widened slot section 14 of the second slot 9 so that each side plate 11 has a free plate end 26 at the widened slot section 14 of the second slot 9. The advantage of this is that this enables using console 16 having a corresponding widened console section 15 that is designed to be disposed at the widened slot section 14 so that the side plates 11 inside the space 5 of the steel beam 1 are disposed between the end plate 4 of the beam and the widened console section 15 of the console 16 so as to secure the steel beam 1 to the console 16 by means of co-operation between the widened console section 15 of the console 16 and the side plates 11 of the steel beam 1.
